BillGuard, the crowdsourced security app for personal finance, has been acquired by peer-to-peer lending giant Prosper Marketplace. While the full value of the deal has not been revealed, VentureBeat has learned that the transaction amounts to around $30 million in cash, plus an undisclosed stock component. Prosper Marketplace was one of the pioneers in the peer-to-peer lending model, and is better known for Prosper.com, which has handled more than $4 billion in loans since 2006. The company has raised north of $350 million to date, including a $165 million round back in April that valued the San Francisco-based company at almost $2 billion.
